Chương 504: Zhu Yi - 504

Zhu Yi waited. He only stopped in respect of his opponent.

The One-Line Swordsman grabbed at his blindfold. After a moment, he ripped it off. Behind the blindfold, there were two unique eyes.

Both had a single, vertical, black pupil that looked exactly like the line the One-Line Swordsman used.

The One-Line Swordsman charged forward, and so did Zhu Yi. Three black lines appeared, rotating around the One-Line Swordsman, whose name was no longer fitting, from top to bottom. They formed an endless spiral that covered the One-Line Swordsman's body.

The One-Line Swordsman slashed down, while Zhu Yi slashed up. Breaking Through All Things.

As soon as the One-Line Swordsman's sword and Zhu Yi's sword collided, the three lines left his body and coiled around his sword.

For the first time since learning Breaking Through All Things, Zhu Yi not only did not break through all things, but was sent flying back.

Without a word, the One-Line Swordsman followed. Zhu Yi used the formless sword as he violently rolled backwards from the attack, but the One-Line Swordsman's lines had returned to his body the moment their swords stopped touching.

They were completely stopped. The One-Line Swordsman was right above Zhu Yi, slashing down, as Zhu Yi came to a halt.

Zhu Yi pulled out his trump card. Breaking Through All Things. Instant Completion.

His attack instantly completed, however, the One-Line Swordsman's descent only halted for a single moment before he hit Zhu Yi again. This time undefended, Zhu Yi went flying.

The three lines around the One-Line Swordsman's body formed a perfect and constant defense. No matter how much time was skipped, the attack still only hit the defense.

It seemed as if everything was hopeless. Zhu Yi now had a large cut on his body. He was also drained of half of his Qi. Since Instant Completion was too consuming to use with a full power attack, it was no wonder that the One-Line Swordsman simply shrugged it off.

Zhu Yi's left arm was nearly cut off, and a large gash remained on his chest. He could only continue fighting back. The One-Line Swordsman did not let up for even a single moment.

For a moment, Zhu Yi despaired. He had used all of his moves. He could try to time Instant Completion to when the One-Line Swordsman attacked, but that would leave him completely defenseless. He would either die or lose the battle if he defenselessly got hit with another attack.

In addition, due to low Qi, the attack he could use with Instant Completion would be extremely weak.

Zhu Yi fought back his hardest, but he was only beaten further and further back. He could not break through all things. It was clearly proven here. Or rather, perhaps, just maybe, the third level was too weak.

He needed the fourth level. And to reach the fourth level, he needed to break through all things.

Zhu Yi charged forward, his fighting spirit at an all time high. With every slash, even though he was always beaten back, a single thought echoed through his body.
